10. Transporting the machine
• Make sure to clear the shredding chamber before m oving the machine. Make sure the infeed
opening is free of branchy material.
• The maximum all owable lateral slope angle amounts to 10%.
• Use slip resistant ramps to load the machine into a van or a trailer. Make sure that they are
securely attached to the vehicle or trailer.
• Under no circumstances must the angle of the up and/or down ramp be greater than 20%.
• Be careful and composed when loading and unloading the shredder so that the machine does
not tip over and give rise to an accident.
• When coming down the ramp, m ove down backwards facing the machine.
• If gravity causes the machine to descend more quickly down the slope than is desired, quickly m ove
the control handle to the other drive direction. This enables you to hydrauli cally brake the machine.
• Make sure to properly secure the machine to the
vehicle during transportation. Use the fixed parts
of the vehicle frame to attach ropes. Two
attachment points (1) are provided for securing
ropes. Always be sure to use the parking brake
(2).
• Do not forget that the machine has a high
centre-of-gravity. Therefore use ropes to secure
both sides of the machine to the vehicl e. This en-
sures that the machine is not toppled over when
the vehicle goes around a bend.
• Do not overload the vehicl e. Refer to Chapter 14
(specifi cations sheet) to find out the exact weight of
the shredder.
